The company visited our college for a summer internship recruitment drive. The process had 4 rounds in total. First, there was an Online Assessment (OA) where 15 students were selected from 360 candidates. Following the OA, there were 3 interview rounds: 2 technical rounds and 1 HR round. The first technical round involved 2 questions: one about prime number detection and its optimization, and another about implementing a system using OOPs, with follow-up OOPs questions. The second round, referred to as the 'Pro fit round', included a DSA problem and some managerial questions. The third round was the HR interview.

- Could you explain prime number detection and its optimized approach?
- Please implement a system using OOPs principles.
- Tell me about the OOPs concepts you applied while implementing the system.

The selection process had 5 stages. Stage 1 was an online assessment with 3 coding questions. 26 students were shortlisted for the offline interviews, which started with a pre-placement talk and lasted all day. Stage 2 was technical round-1 where they asked about C++, a graph problem, puzzles, DBMS topics like Normalization, computer science fundamentals, and a project discussion involving database schemas. Stage 3 was technical round-2, covering internship, resume questions, DSA problems (Kadane’s, House Robber, cycle detection, Trapping Rain Water), more puzzles, OOP, DBMS, OS, Networking topics including SQL queries, polymorphism, IPv4/IPv6, multiprocessing/multithreading, and CPU scheduling. Stage 4 was a short Professional Fit (PRO-FIT) Round focusing on internship and React concepts like Hooks, components, class vs function components.

Technical Coding Behavioral
The interview had 4 rounds in total, split between technical and HR. The first technical round, lasting 30-40 minutes, began with an introduction and then moved into Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA) questions like finding the element with max frequency in an array, printing numbers 1 to n without loops, and sorting an array of strings. It also covered Object-Oriented Programming (OOPs), asking to explain its pillars and polymorphism with examples, Computer Networking (CN) with questions on LAN vs WAN, and Database Management Systems (DBMS) discussing SQL vs NoSQL and why NoSQL was used in my project. My project was then discussed, including the database choice and motivation for the project. A general awareness question about the angle between clock hands at 10:15 was also asked. The second technical round, 40-50 minutes long, jumped straight into DSA problems: the bottom view of a binary tree, the longest palindromic subsequence (aiming for the most optimized solution), and the house robbery problem. Project discussion continued, focusing on integrating AI technology and the reasoning behind it. They also inquired about my co-curricular activity, basketball, and leadership roles in college. The third round was a professional fitment interview (10-15 minutes) with HR questions about team projects, challenges in teamwork, handling team member illness before presentations, improving technical skills, and motivation for joining a bank. The final HR round (15-25 minutes) consisted of analytical and thinking-based questions on conflict resolution, making an impact through ongoing projects, taking blame for others, reasons for interest in DB and finance companies, resolving disagreements with teammates, and handling situations where a team member underperforms before a presentation. Unfortunately, I was not selected.
